Hi Lads

Any news on river levels? We had a s**t load of rain in MK today. It chucked it down. The Ouse must be WELL up!!
Are we in for another summer of floods I ask myself??

Good luck to everyone come June 16th - dont forget your chest waders!

I've just started a new job in Bedford with my daily commute taking me down the A6 just past Radwell. I'll probably give the first day a miss and start my assault on the Tuesday evening.

I'll probably leave it 'til the weekend.. I normally find the 16th a bit disappointing!

Hi Chris, yes the other chaps are right it`s raging thru and chocy brown due to all this extra water the last few days, it doesnt matter thou as you will rarely see any fish at turvey as they are all tucked away but we can still go for a walk anyways. Have just returned from the nene where i have just removed a trap ( guess who! ) and must say it looks spot on for a few this season.

I will text you tmrw and provided nothing goes wrong this end will meet you on fri afternoon.

Very coloured and lots of rubbish coming down this morning. With the forecast of more rain I think fish spotting will be very hard for a good few days. Now if it is like this in a couple of weeks time....

Its a known fact that the further north one travels, the more thin on the ground and the more stunted the fish get! Give me a 'pansy stream' 'down souf' any day. This is where the real fish live!

Take no notice Angie, you fish our pansie streams................. they are stuffed full of fat, fit, fighting felines

Angie,

Just in case your surname is purely coincidental,
leave these southern pansie streams alone and come
up to Gods County. I'll give you a guided tour of all the
best rivers, and watering holes, our fish are lean, mean,
fighting machines, for sure.

Hi Angie

Welcome to the forum! It makes a nice change to see a member of the fairer sex on this site for a change
I live in Milton Keynes, and have fished the river in the MK area for a number of years. If you need any advice about barbel fishing on the MK stretches of river, I'll be more than happy to help.

Tight Lines for the new season
